So yesterday, as technically this is posted on the 30th, was my birthday. I turned 46. I have absolutely no idea why this number, out of all of them, was so utterly soul-destroying but, nevertheless, I had a mid-life crisis of confidence of epic proportions, which I shan’t bother you with nor with the fall out.

And Breathe.

Very quick post. Being on nights is weird. All of sudden, while you weren’t watching, it turned from Tuesday into Wednesday. All of a sudden I’ve gone from two days to leaving to leaving tomorrow. While I am amazingly ahead of schedule in terms of preparation for the trip ( packing like a gay man [...]
Personal Best
Posted in Nigel, tagged Personal Trainer on March 21, 2011 | 20 Comments »
My personal trainer made a huge joke today. He suggested that I would become one of those people who became obsessed with exercise. Evidently the fact that I was jumping for joy at the apricot sized muscle I’ve developed in my arms {I’ve got guns!!!!) and admiring said apricot in the mirror (couldn’t see it!) [...]
Tales Of My Beard…. Belt
Posted in Nigel, tagged Beards, Weight Loss on March 16, 2011 | 24 Comments »
As you know I am on a weight loss push. Normally I my don’t cut my beard and hair until I’ve lost 10 kgs. (That has started again, by the way. This has a dual effect of motivating me and drives JW to distraction which motivates me further… as he whinges. A lot.) However today [...]
Court Out

My friend, Reza, is a translator in Farsi and invited me to accompany him today to the local Court house where attended to translate for a client. We both erroneously assumed it would take about ten minutes of contact as opposed to the 2 hours it did take. I had planned to go for a [...]
Crush’d – The Last Hurrah
Posted in Nigel, tagged George Donikian on March 9, 2011 | 10 Comments »
Well this took a turn I hadn’t expected. I was wracking my brains trying to think of who I was crushing on in the teens and couldn’t think of a one. I suspect that I was so full of self loathing at the time for having homosexual thoughts that I didn’t allow myself the luxury [...]
Crush’D – The Police Edition

More embarrassing memories, more public humiliations. Anyone would think I was masochistic. (Hush, you.) I had gotten into real live humans at this point ( I am so proud) and was prey to 1970s Australian television. 1970s Australian Television was a plethora of cop shows basically and you could take your pic of the combination [...]
Tales of My Beard

Remember this? It now looks like this: Because, yes, I FINALLY got past the ten kilo mark after weeks of hundred gram losses. Finally. Man that was a pain. Anyway the clock is reset. On to the next ten kilos. See how feral looking I can become in the next ten. Note to Lloyd. I [...]
The Cure For What Ails Me

Apologies for the lack of posts over the last few days. As my last post may have indicated my mood was not in the right spot for writing up posts. (That doesn’t stop me writing up stuff when I’m in those moods, heh. When I’m dead check the draft folder of this thing. It’s quite the reading. [...]
